THE PRESIDENT’S SPECIAL MESSAGE.
Richmond, March 14.
The President addressed an important mes
sage to Congress which was read in
Bee ret session He says the country is now en
vironed with perils which it is our duty to con
template calmly. The recent military success
es of the enemy have had the natuial effect of
encouraging our foes and diaspiriting our peo
ple.
The eagitol of the Confederate States is now
threatened, aud in greater danger than it has
heretofore been during the war. This is stated
without reserve, as due to the people in whose
constancy aud courage entire trust is reposed,
and Congress, in whose wisdom and resolute
spirit the people have confided for advice and
measures required to guard them from threat
ened peril.
It is within our power to avoid the calami
ties whioh menuce us aud secure a triumph to
our sacred cause. This result is to be obtained
by a prompt and resolute devotion ot the whole
resources of men and money in the Confedera
cy to the achievement of our liberties and in
dependence.
We need for carrying ou the war successful
ly men and supplies tor the army. We have
both in the country sufficient to obtain success.
For the purchase of supplies it is necessary
that the government be supplied with the
means. The President recommends for the
reason stated that Congress devise means for
making available the corn within the Confed
erate States for the purpose of supplying the
army.
With two millions in corn the armies in Vir
ginia and North Carolma can be supplied am
ply for the remainder of the year.
The impressment law should be amended to
authorize the impressment of supplies with
out making payment of valuation at time ol
impressment. This is admitted to be objec
tionable, but all objections must yield to abso
lute oeoessity. •
The President suggests the valuation of sup
plies impressed at specie rates., the .obligation
of government to be given for the payment of
the price in coin with interest, or at the option
of the creditor to be returned in kiDd.
The President says ftiat the measures passed
during the present eeesion of Congress for re
cruiting the army are insufficient and he is
impelled by a profound conyiction of duty
stimulated by me perils which environ our
county to urge additional legislation on this
subject,
The bill to employ negroes as soldiers had
not yet reached him, though the public Journ
als informed him of Its passage. Much benefit
is anticipated from this measure, though far
less than would have resulted from its adoption
at an earler time.
The President recommends the repeal of all
class exemptions, go as to strengthen our
torce in the field and abate discontent iu the
armv.
The measure most needed, however, for af
fording an effective increase of our military
strength is a general law prescribing not only
how, and of what persons the military is to be
organised but provide a mode for calling them
out, the States reserving the appointment of
officers.
Q
The President strongly urges the suspension
of the writ of habeas corpus, and says that the
time has not only arrived when it is not only
advisable and expedient, but almost indispen
sable to a successful conduct of the war.
With the prompt adoption of the measure
above recommended, and the united and
hearty co-operation of the people
in executing the laws and the defence of the
country, we may enter upon our present cam
paign with cheerful confidence, resolute to
make-all our resources available, but with an
. undying and unconquerable resolve to be free.
We must continue this struggle to a success
ful issue, or submit unconditionally to the
foe.
• The President informs Congress that in
eourso of the Conference at Fortress Monroe
a suggestion was made by one of our comnaU
sioners for negotiating by means of a conven
tion between commanding Generals of armies
At the time Lincoi n did not accept the sug
! gestion.
Subsequently Mr Orr asked an Interview
with Longstreet during which the latter~was
informed that there was possibility of a sat-
I isfarocry adjustment of ibe present unhappy
i difficulties by means of a military convention,
j Lee oceording to instructions wrote to Grant
J on the 2d inst. pn posing to meet him for con
i’ ference on the subject .-Mating that he was ves
| ed with rhertquteu- authority. Grant replied
| that h; had no authority to accede to the pro-
I posed oc-ntei nee, that his poweis extended
only to making a convention a subject partly
of a military character
Thus it appears that the Government or
the United States will not make auy terra
for agreement whatever for cessation of hos
tilities. There remains uo chance tor us but
to continue the contest Cos the final issue. The
President invokes attention to the means by
which above ali otters we may hope to esoaue
calamities luai would result from failure.
Among the most prominent is the necessity
for earnest and cordial co operation between
all depat tments of ;bt: Government Rfaten and
Confederate and all eminent citizens through
out the Confederacy.
To Senatois and Representatives do the peo
pie especially look tor encouragement and
counsel, tnus in common our holy cause, rising
above selfish considerations making all man
failurt s tributary to Country’s welfare, fetus
bow submissively to Divine will and reverent
ly invoke the blessing of our Heavenly Father

LATER FR’OM EUROPE.
The subject of the defences of war was de
bated in the House of Lords.
Earl Derby favored the adoption of vigorous
measures in view of the hostile feelings of the
Americans. •
Earl Derby said .'that the Government
would ask a vote of fifty thousand pounds
sterling toi the defences at Quebec, leaving
those at Montreal to the Canadian House of
Lords.
Martmaburg aud Eilenbovough complained
of the inacuracy of this amount.
Eirl Russell objected to discussing the mat
ter, and said that ihe Government had declin
ed to make any movement while the Cana
dians declined to-take measures themselves,
but as they now show a different position the
Government will assist them
•'The debate caused the funds to fali.
Napoleon, in his speech at the opening of
the French Chamber*, did not refer to the war
/
in this country, but represented, the situation
of affairs in Mexico as satisfactory.
Prussian Chamber deputies, in spite of Min
isterial influence, passed a resolution in favor

The London Index says peace conference
makes it more evident thaD ever that neutrali
ty is the only policy for England. Acting
Rear Admiml Hatcher succeeds Commodor 6
Palmer in command of west gulf fleet.
A Paris correspondent of the London Times
says there are grounds for the rumor of the
contemplated recognition of the Confederacy
by France, and says Napoleon assured its gov
ernment no Mexican territory had been ceded.
The Paris correspondent pf the London
Journal says Napoleon had a paragraph writ
ten in his address expressive of his sorrow at
the continuance of the war in America.
Referring to neutrality, when the advices by
the Canada reached him reporting the opening
of peace negotiations at Fortress Monroe, on
the first day of the Legis'ative session, the!
nuws placed him in a dilemma
His neutrality was likely to ne of little j
avail, and not knowing how best to express
the point of the exigency concluded to remain
silent.
In the Yellow Rook laid before Chambers
he has a communication upon the subject.
It says he decided, so long as circumstances
were not more favorable, not to renew our
efforts to open the way to an understanding.
We have remained inactive, but in the dif
ferent speculations of the Confederacy, in which
so much ruin is accumulated, we have
thought it our duty to turn our attention sole
ly to the condition of our French subjects as
worthy of our own interest.
Owing to the peculiar situation ol the Con
federate JStates of North America, with which
we do not keep up official relations, we can
often do nothing but register claims of French
subjects in these States, reserving to ourselves
to enforce them at some fitting opportunity.'

MOVEMENTS OF THOMAS.
The latest advices from New- Orleans of
March 4th, state that there were forty thous
and Yankee troops in that city, mostly from
Thomas’ command. Who proclaimed openly
their intention to capture Selma, by the way
of Pensacola.
The New Orleans Times of March Ist states
that the flagship Arizona was destroyed by fire
on February 28th, twenty miles below the
city.
The raid on Milton, Florida, on the 4th was
a small affair. A working party of about three
hundred Yankees, with an armed squad were
engaged iu the expedition. Their appearance
was unexpected, and our forces were complete
ly surprised, losing thirty men captured. Not
a gun was fired, and the enemy after seeming
the object of their trip, returned to their for
mer position.
ROSSER AT WORK.
Hon. J. C. Breckinridge, Secretary of War;
Gon. Rosser reports that on the sixth with a
few of his men ho attacked the enemy near
Harrisburg who were guarding provisions cap
tured at Waynesboro. On the next morning he
again attacked them near Rode’s Hill Hav
ing detained them a day aud nighi, at Hie* river
he caused them to retire in haste, abandoning
the only piece of artillery they had, and their
ambulances.
Hampton at daylight this morning drove h im
from his camp, taking his guns aud wagons,
besides releasing a great number of our men
captured by the enemy. The guus and wag
gons could not be brought off for want of hor
ses. Many of the enemy were killed and
wOunded. Our loss was not heavy. Lieut.

BRAGG DEFEATS THE ENEMY.
Headquarters, March 9
Geu. J. C. Breckinridge, Secretary of War—
Gen. Bragg reports that he attacked the ene
my yesterday four mileß in front of Kinston,
N. 0., and drove him from his position. The
enemy disputed the ground obstinately, and
took another position three miles from bis
first.
We captured three pieces of artillery, and
fifteen hundred prisoners. The number of the
enemy’s dead and wounded left fin the field is
very large. Our loss is comparatively small.
The troops behaved most handsomely, and
Major Generals Hill and Hoke exhibited their
accustomed zeal and gallantry.
PRESS AGENT’S.DISPATCH.
It is very necessary for the safety of all per
sons who come within the limits of General
Lee’s amnesty order that they take notice
that they should report immediately to the
nearest commanding officer, in this department;
the limitation of twenty days will expire on
the first of April, it having been published on
the tenth of March.
The work of repairs 'is progressing rapidly
between Branchville and Columbia.

stroyed that no effort will be made soon to
repair it.
